Xerocks by Cecile Babiole: also part of NXNE

Xerocks is an interactive installation designed to turn two copying machines into musical instruments. Press a button on the machine and that will trigger a copying cycle, simultaneously generating a sequence of sounds. By (mis)appropriating and thereby alienating this familiar piece of office equipment, Xerocks ironically morphs an imaging apparatus into a sound production device. Xerocks is presented in partnership with the Consulate General of France in Toronto and is sponsored by Direct Office Solutions.
